1860 Mortality Schedule (Persons who died during the year ending 1st June 1860)
Columns, left to right: 1) Name of every person who died during the year ending 1st June 1860, whose
usual place of abode at the time of death was in this family; 2) age; 3) sex; 4) color-white, black, or
mulatto; 5) free or slave; 6) married or widowed; 7) place of birth, naming the state, territory, or country; 8)
the month in which the person died; 9) profession, occupation, or trade; 10) disease or cause of death; 11)
number of days ill. Note: most of these columns were not used. The individuals were numbered in the
original record.
I have expanded several abbreviations for the sake of readability. The first is the gender of each individual.
James Bleckley, who was the census taker for this year, used 'm' for male and 'f' for female. He also
used 'm' for married. In addition, Mr. Bleckley wrote 'Geo.' for Georgia. Otherwise, everything is
transcribed exactly as it appeared in the original record to the best of my ability to make it so.
